Building an underground city for the bots - Timberborn - Steeltide #14
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 18 янв 2025
- It's time to start building Junkertown: a giant underground city built into a mountain that will be the future home of our bots. After lots of work in earlier episodes of relocating all of our production, we just have some final layers to dynamite and then construction can be begin! In this video we're going to shape the rest of the basin, finishing hollowing out the mountain, build a giant tower of timber, irrigate the inside, build a hidden dam, create an underground forest, and start building the foundation of the second story.

Has max logs, “we need more” gets 11000 logs, “MORE”
There's a mod that allows you to get a first person point of view and I bet walking through would look epic!
junkertown is becoming a really really impressive city! the whole map will be unrecognisable by the time you're done with it. keep it up, I love this series!!
I was skeptical of the idea of Junkertown at first, and now I love it so much. Can't wait to see the final product, it's going to be so cool!!
I burnt through your whitewater series just this week and i am glad that steeltide is prolly gonna last double of that hopefully. This is prolly the most beautiful design i have seen in this game. I love how humanely you treat the bots despite them being disposable. And even your design aesthetic revolves around making things more organic than being overly efficient with space usage. I would honestly love a full series on each of the maps at this point haha. But i guess by the time you finish a few of these, we should have update 7 soon.
Thanks! I just saw the teaser for Update 7 today: 3d dirt is coming which will unlock all sorts of new buildings too
A tree is tree blocks high 😄
Braziers under a massive wooden structure 😳… 🚒🚒
Loving the series so far. Look forward to new uploads every week!
I wish you could put dirt over stuff do you could make cave systems
They should add some expensive thing that goes on overhangs and metal platforms to make it so they can hold dirt
you and me both, mate. I wanna make underground waterways, dangit!!!!!!! Basically a pipe like Zeddic makes, but be able to put DIRT on top of it so we can have a watered, UNINTERRUPTED green space!!
dirt is just a heightmap, so sadly you can't have any discontinuities between the bottom of the world and the dirt surface. Adding that as an option would require making dirt just a block, which would probably be very unkind to the CPU
@@KarolOfGutovo bro is a genius
@@KarolOfGutovo There is a mod called "Dirt" that adds a stone block which looks just like dirt, down to reflecting irrigation, but won't allow anything to be planted on it. I stopped using it because I don't like the changes the mod do to recipes.
Another great episode! I love that you put all the lamps and brazers down under the floor. It looks great and does make more sense. I just wish you could make the lamps be always lit too. Can't wait to see how this progresses!
Same! I forgot that they are only lit only at night
One thing for when handling the badwater sources in the mesa: the source itself doesn't contaminate the ground under it and acts like impermeable flooring in preventing the badwater it releases from contaminating the ground, all the contamination around a badwater source comes from the badwater touching other dirt blocks around it, so if you make every other block that touches the badwater impervious to it - a levee, dirt covered with impermeable flooring if the badwater only touches its top, dirt with contamination barriers if the badwater touches it on its side, etc - then you can use those badwater sources without the risk of contamination to the trees below. To put it another way, replace the dirt around the badwater sources with levees or put contamination barriers on them, don't let the badwater ever touch the pile of indestructible dirt under the source (as you can't replace or put contamination barriers on it), and you can make badwater aqueducts to safely use the badwater; you have already capped the sources anyway, so much of the cost has already been paid.
(I would test any design in a test world first, mind, as your badwater sources are in the middle of the forest you are planting.)
Another thing, though it might be too late for you: you can pull irrigation from suspended aqueducts and reservoirs by having a dirt column as part of the floor of the aqueduct or suspended reservoir, preferably touching the water at the center of a 3x3 area of water; for your aqueduct you could do this by having one of the center overhangs in the middle of each "arch" one tile shorter and using a dirt column to plug the gap. This allows you can green the area below them without needing to pull water from them; less water surface, thus less evaporation losses, and as a side benefit the irrigation radius around a dirt column under the center of a 3x3 area of water is slightly larger than the radius around a 3x3 pool.
Thanks for the tip with the aqueduct!s Something I've also noticed with bad water is that, even if it is touching dirt, the effects have a height limit. For example, I have some trenches re-routing bad water and adjacent to the trench is green grass because the trench is so deep. In the case of the bad water sources on top of the city I'm hoping that the height difference rules still apply but will find out!
@@ZeddTheBuilder The effect for both irrigation and contamination have a height limit only when going *up*; there is no such limit when going down. Bad water touching the top of a dirt column at the height cap will have the full contamination range at the bottom of the column, no matter how high it is.
I think of the Ironteeth as a more advanced beaver society existing later when the ecological disaster has worsened and the beavers have had to adapt
Fell in love with this series :)
Just a question, I thought that the water pumps had a filter so you can pump clean water from bad water? Maybe you should make a bad water reservoir for drinking water.
This is absolutely mind bending! I love how junktown is coming along, keep it up!
Few suggestions. Inefficiency in your extract maker because they font have extract storage nearby. Also no storage for extract near dirt excavator
YIPPII A NEW EPISODEEE!!!!🎉🎉
Loved the series. I hope it keeps going
you need to make more house for bevers!
Absolutely loving your videos! Great content
11:03 may be worth turning off the decontamination pods, i think they consume extract
They don't consume extract when they are not used, but they consume power all the time.
The don't seem to cunsume anything unused
Starting to look really awsome!
Great episode. Lots done. I look forward to your next episode. I wish they allowed us to play as both beavers. So you can have a green area for the foaktails and an industrial area for the iron teeth. The underground pile and the wind turbines are the only reason I play the foaktails. It bothers me that they don't allow the iron teeth to have those things. Also I wish they allowed ladders. I mean seriously no ladders? But Timberborn is almost a perfect game.
I'd really love a slightly more powerful storage unit for Iron Teeth. Folk Tail are kind of limited by it being required to be on the ground while Iron Teeth can stack. However, with Update 7 there are now adding 3d dirt, so Folk Tail would be able to start stacking as well, which makes me wonder if they will rebalance the numbers.
What an epic unique project idea, love it!
you work very quickly 😅👍
Was waiting for this video!
You build a lot of big things. 👍
Great job. Enjoying the series
You can prevent evaporation in the reservoir by keeping a top layer of disposable bad water - and lid made of bad water so to say - as only the top most layer of water evaporates. And since bad water is available even in droughts, this is the best way too keep the most amount of water...
But water and bad water are treated separately in term of evaporation, so even with one of top of the other, both will evaporate as if the other one was not there
Yay! Coruscant build!
While he was building that twin towers of log storage, i couldnt help but look at those poor 28 homeless beavers. Truely a capitalist: Industry before empathy
Just gonna to say: that looks awesome!
Always excited to see these notifications🤙🏻
Man this is epic cant wait tom see what it looks like at the end
Actually, there are FIVE water sources on this map.
You have one more in the tunnel, between two badwater sources near your mega dam on the north.
awesome project! keep going
Careful now! We all know what happens to beavers who dig too greedily and too deep!
Having growth lamps for the trees is nice, but maybe the beavers also want to be able to see where they're walking? More lights next to the paths please.
Oh and people allready said this, but you need about 2-3 more lodges for the beavers. You're having between 20 and 30 beavers sleeping under the stars.
You kinda did what I did.. I hollowed out the mountain, made a pressurized water pipe, planted trees, then I did a 5 stack tall storage later, and on top, manufacturing :D
👏👏👏
I think there was 5 water source when last i play this map, inside some kind of cave under some badwater source. Or maybe im trippin
Junkertown's dam looks a bit contaminated
There is 5 water sources one is under the NE messa
I'm afraid I started this map before they released the updated versions as part of update 6, so I'm missing underground water sources in the NE mesa. I'm really tempted to add them back in with dev tools since water is so limited on a map this size. I don't really need it for the beavers, but it would be nice to turn the map green.
I feel it's a shame that you only upload once a week, but you probably have your own circumstances. I just like your style.
Setting the stage for a bot uprising, eh?
I think I'm going to pass the bot-beaver population inflection point soon
What time do you call this?!
I was about to send out a search party.
Maybe you should stop some breeding pods and let your non bot population shrink a bit.
Junher town is great.
Hi
Seperare warer pumps from center dam , you are exhausting center dam , it is too much to ask from 2 water source.
you didnt have any use for other storage just filling rever for trees
In next episode connect to other water source that going to waste ,please
